A CHARMING AND WONDERFULLY POSITIONED FAMILY HOME OFFERING SPACIOUS LIVING ACCOMMODATION IN A HIGHLY POPULAR VILLAGE LOCATION
White Croft is a wonderfully positioned three/four bedroom family home which is believed to date from 1923 and was built by the owners of the White & Co shoe factory in the thriving and popular village of Earls Barton.
The property is positioned in a private and mature plot in all extending to around 0.4 acres (0.16 ha). White Croft offers well-presented and characterful living accommodation arranged over two floors. In addition to the main house, potential is offered by the attic areas which are currently used as informal spaces. These spaces could provide more formal living accommodation in the form of additional bedroom accommodation if so desired, subject to gaining the necessary planning and building consents. The triple garage with toilet could also provide potential for conversion in to ancillary accommodation to the main house, again subject to gaining the necessary permissions and consents.

From the main hall access is provided to three reception rooms which include a sitting room and family room both with attractive bay windows which provide a feeling of both light and space. In addition there is a further reception room currently used as an office and which has been formerly used and could again be used as a guest bedroom.
Further accommodation comprises an attractively fitted kitchen breakfast room comprising range of fitted base and eye level units, Neff five plate gas hob with extractor, double oven, dishwasher, larder fridge together with heat resistant surfaces. There is also a generously proportioned laundry room. From the kitchen area double doors provide access to an impressive and large conservatory which offers extended family living and dining spaces, along with wonderful views over the landscaped gardens and grounds.
